Luke18:11

Verse 11. God, I thank thee] Non vulnera sed muner a [illegible: 1 word], [non-Latin text not transcribed]. Basil. he shewes not his want but his worth: and stands not only upon his comparisons, but upon his disparisons, I am not as this Publican. No, for thou art worse: yea for this, because thou thinkest [illegible: 5 words]. thee better. But of Pharisees it might be said as Arnobius did of the Gentiles, Apud vos optimi censentur, quos [illegible: 1 word] pessimorum [illegible: 1 word]. [illegible: 1 word] facit. They are very good that are not very bad. [illegible: 5 words]] Pride wears a triple crown with this motio, Tra. [illegible: 1 word], Non obedio, [illegible: 1 word]. This Pharisee held himself [illegible: 3 words], and all others a [illegible: 1 word] only, as Basil of [illegible: 1 word] hath it: He takes his poor counter and sets it down for a Thousand pounds; he prizeth himself above the market.
